Opening times

Our handmade copper bar sets the scene in the beautiful new Bar Hemingway’s where the perfect blend of whimsy and tradition await.

Step back in time as you swirl an Old Fashioned, expertly made by one of our highly skilled Bar Tenders or walk the tightrope of new experience as you sip a once-off cocktail designed especially for you! Celebrate that special something with any of our Champagnes or Sparkling Wines.

With more than 140 whisky’s from all over the world, including Japan, India or even Ireland, Bar Hemingway’s offers you the taste experience of a lifetime.

Book a tasting or even a food pairing experience with our team, where we provide you and your guests with a unique event designed to bring the best of both Bar and Café Hemingway’s to your table. Our experiences can be booked for rum, whisky, wine or Champagne.
